can any body explain scale parameters in simpler form
Poor definition
The definition doesn't take into account:
other possible parameters (there is only one in the formulas)
discrete distributions (with no density function). The definition should use cdf instead.
distributions with expected value different than 0. According to the current definition standard deviation is a scale parameter of the normal distribution only if μ=0
